Not down

Asked by Cafox311 Nov 07, 2019 at 09:15 AM about the 1998 Dodge RAM 1500

Question type: General

When this first started it wouldn't start on some days and
when it did start I'd get down the road and it would act like
it was stalking then fire back up. I changed plugs,wire,
distributor cap, rotor, cam sensor, and the fuel relay. Was
fine for a few days then this morning on my way to work
she did the die down then run fine issue again. Any help
guys? I'm by no means a mechanic but I'm trying.

Could be the distributor pick up going bad https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/bwd-distributor-pick-up-assembly-me87/20240216-p?c3ch=PLA&c3nid=20240216-P&adtype=%7badtype%7d&msclkid=c1dd05ee0c7f12216681582ab4154ed0&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=b_pla_all_ignition%2Femission%2Fignition%2Fcomponents_ignition%2Fcoils%2Fmodules_gen_gen_all_all_aap_us_all&utm_term=4580634167582527&utm_content=Bing_PLA_Ignition%2Femission%20-%20Ignition%20Components_Ignition%20Coils%20%26%20Modules_Ignition%20Pick%20Ups_dc%20%3E%20mid-high&gclid=CPXou72v2eUCFdZUgQod0WsLxA&gclsrc=ds
